hot soil? maybe? I have had some do that to me with some warm recipes.

FYI I have been able to recreate your issue with out too much trouble. Not only are the sensitive to too much dampness in the beginning, they also do not like to be chilled AT ALL. I moved all the ones I started for germ testing to a different area which has been staying between 66 and 68 and with in a week have gotten them to do that same thing with the weird looking leaves.
I saved a couple and moved them in to a warmer area to see if they bounce back or just die off which is what I expect them to do now. Not sure why Murphy put that rule about extreme genetics being extreme to run, or the strongest plants never yielding much.
In any event, wanted to update and let you know Starfighter is still a sensitive little girl that needs love and much tenderness.

Very interesting thanks for the insight. I put them next to the clones in the nursery without a dome. They should be fine now, hopefully.

Starfighter IBL update: things are cool so far had to top off a couple roots I thought were too exposed, just top off with soil and water. Next water will be first feeding of 1/4 strength Jack’s professional 20/20/20 so the mix will really be like 5/5/5 by concentration.
Third set of leaves all the way around (some smaller) and a couple of yellowing cotyledons. No bugs no leaf spots no one laying in the dirt

Ok I lied I just hit them with plain water this morning, tonight I will rehit the cups with the super soft nutrient mix for a super light feeding

You’re on it already 
But I see the same symptoms in clones that have been under a dome too long.

I transplanted all six remaining younglings into 1 gallon fabric pots. They all had quite a bit of roots coming out the bottom of the cups. They’re only about 3"x3"x4".

Hey @Uncle_Al, you beat me fair and square in the challenge, shold we do another, i’ll run it. Easily and more openly this time. But, you helped me save my first harvest when i did the flushing and they bounced back, and you even offered to help me thru PMs; i really appreciate it bro. You saved me, and i wish you the best of luck in your upcoming grows.
I will make it harder for you next time around, promise!

Those were the same BubbleGum i ran and harvested bro. They were big seeds yes, but i think their ruderalis is low, so… Anyway, sorry to hear, how about the Aurora Indica’s?
@DavesNotHere i am loving the rice husks on the plants, like mulch. Looks clean.

Hi @Uncle_Al is that 1/4 teaspoon per gallon of water?
I love Jack’s fertilizers…probably my all time favorite… I have been using it for many years and many many crops.
I usually start seedlings on 1/4 teaspoon per gallon and then more as they grow up.
I like to feed with each and every watering.
Yup 1/4 tbsp/gal. Mixed in 4 gallon lots.

Some are bigger, some are wrinkly and some have yellow.
Should have fed them a little sooner. Let’s see how well I recover. Two or three are ready to up pot.

What does an unhealthy root look like? It will be gray/brown in color, and some times have mushy spots like boiled out angel hair pasta instead of firm bright white fibrous strands.
Looking at the roots confirms health status ,watering level and helps prevent being rootbound
